Opening to the Close.

NEW YoRK, Nov. IL.
The stock market to-day more active than
usual of late and was strong from the opening to
the close The feature of the trading was the pur-
chases for foreign account. Stocks opened firmly,
generally at small advances over last evenings
final figures and tn market became strong imme-
dately, Reading and West Point leading. There
was moderate business only, which, however, be-
came more animated as the day wore on. Erie and
Lackawanna came into prominence toward noon
and ST. Paul later nd in the last hour Hooking
Valley Joined the procession making very marked
advance The rise was almost continuous from the
first sale to the last and the close active and
strong at the best prices of the day. The bears
seemed much demoralizej, while the bulls were
confident of a greater advance In prices.

Judge Andrews had an interesting case be-
fore him yesterday. It was a petition for a
construction of will. Benjamin E. Good
rich of Indian Neck died about fifteen years
ago, leaving property to the amount of S10,-
O00 His will bequeathed all property in
fee simple to his wife, Fannie E. Goodrich,
who was then in delicate condition, except
that if the child should live it should have
proper education, care and advantages. Mrs.
Goodrich recently married Charles K. Cor
ham. Mabel Goodrich, the child, is now
grown up to be young lady and Prof. w.
K. Townsend, her guardian ad Item, petit
lions the court for a construction of the will
and claiming that as the girl is not having
proper advantages and care that a receiver
be appointed to sell the property and admin
lister it for the girls advantage until she be-
came OF age. Mrs. Gorham also wants the
court to construe whether in point Of law
the widow still holds the property in fee sim.

NOTES.
The league directors have voted to pay the
referees 50 and expenses per game. the same
as last year. AS the central division only
pays that sum it was not deemed advisable
to go any higher. Goldsmith and Daniels
wanted SIS and expenses.
Captain Hallett has signed Boyle as goa
tender. Boyle played on the Salems in 49,
when that team won the championship.
Later he was on the Peabodys. It was sup
posed that he had been engaged by the new
Boston team, but as that team was not adj
mitted to the league Captain Hallett secured
him, and he thinks he signed good man.
James B. Donnelly of this city, the captain
of the Washington base ball team, was yes
terday appointed referee.
The New Haven team will report for duty
on Monday next.
The Connecticut Polo league managers
will meet tonight at Bridgeport. They
will decide on the price to be paid the refe-
rec, adopt schedule and complete all the
arrangements. Soby says he will telegraph the
fate of the ''twin glt-edged referees" as soon
as the meeting adjourns. "Do we get it?''-
Goldsmith in the Hartford Times No, you
didn't get it. What q nerve he has to call
himself "gilt-edged" referee. Last season
he gave very poor satisfaction in this city
Meriden people can hardly bear his referee
ing, and in fact he gave no satisfaction what
ever, except in Hartford.

Too Much of water.

The public works which we have been ac-
customed to look upon as a panacea for In
dian ills are not, it appears, without their
grave dangers to the people they are intend
ed to benefit, says the London News. A
sanitary inquiry, recently held in India, at
tributes the prevalence of fever to the in
creased moisture of the subsoil, due partly
to the canal irrigation, but chiefly to the ar
rest of rainfall drainage, owing to the con-
struction in recent years of network of
earthworks for the irrigation channels, for
roadways and railways. The executive engi-
neer of the eastern Jumna canal tells the Gu
rious experience of town called Shamli in
these striking terms: "When there was no
canal, when the country was dry and parehed
all round, when higher fields were kept green
by water drawn up in bags from depth of
thirty and sometimes fifty feet, then Shami
was pleasant city in a green valley. Fee
verish indeed, and sometimes heavily strick-
en- with ague, but still green place and fer
tile, where shady groves and orchards
abounded, and fruits and herbs grew plenti-
fully. Then Shami was in place where a
town should be. But now that water is
plentiful everywhere, and the ground is sod
den, the green valley has become q noisome
fever hole, and the town is but a crumbl1ng
ruin" The lesson of this story is that unless
irrigation canals are accompanied with ade-
quate arrangements for drainage of the soil ,
great boon becomes source of pestilence.

READING TIE CARDS.
some Hints About Fortune Telling
for the ParIOr.

some Hints About Fortune Telling
for the ParlOr.
There are variety of ways in which the
cards must be handled, writes an amateur
fortune teller in the Chicago Tribune, but
the would-be seeress must always assume
a very mysterious air, and sort over her
cards with as much care as a Jew diamond
dealer does his stock in trade. Then the
seeress must know something about the
character of her subject if she wants to be
interesting. OF course if she has lively
Imagination she can dispense With this last
requisite, but if she comes near the truth IN
some few things her reputation for the pos
session of occult powers will be increased
many fold. The cards themselves will fur
nish numerous suggestions. The queens of
diamonds and hearts are blonde women; the
queen of hearts is valuable in love and mat
rimonial affairs, and the queen of diamonds
suggests an heiress. The queens of spades
and of clubs pass readily for handsome bru-
nette ladies, who may be mated with the
courtly blonde gentlemen represented by the
kings of hearts and diamonds. The jack of
diamonds is a mercenary, fortune hunting
dandy, and can only succeed where the seer
ess and the girl whose fortune is being told
are not on good terms. The other jacks may
be Jumped, and will pass for villains of one
type or another, while the four kings, two
blondes and two brunettes will give men
enough for almost any woman to weave ro-
nance out of.
Still other ideas are suggested by the cards.
A row of rich warm, red cards show that
the person by whom they were cut must have
before her, or after her, as the case may be, a
period of comfort, ease and elegance. II
broken here and there by black card it
only means that sorrow is to be mixed with
the sunshine, and that excess of joy shall not
lead to calamity. If the sombre black cards
follow the subject look out for squalls and
trouble. A deuce stands for carriage ride
and four-spot clinging close to the subject
means an ocean voyage. The eight-spot
means a letter, and it can come in future or
it may have been received in the past, &C
cording to what the seeress knows of he1
subjects history-and it may contain good OF
bad news by it's proximity to the cards rep
resenting the various phases of life. The six
spot is an odd card, and can be made to dc
duty in a variety of ways. 1t can be peace
maker or a cross-eyed mother-in-law, at the
caprice of the seeress, and astonishing results
can be obtained by proper manipulation OF
the card. The ace of hearts in close prox-
unity to the heroine of the fortune, and to
the absence of men, means maidenhood, but
if there are one or two gentlemen round
about she may be considered on the sunny
side of thirty and still eligible. The ace OF
diamonds is suggestive of money, and the
ace of clubs of obstacles, which the brave
and energetic always surmount. The tray Is
an energetic little card and always means that
the other woman, or man, who appears in the
layout is rival and is liable to make trouble.

THE RESERVOIR SUIT.

After assignment of cases at the weekly
Superior court bar meeting yesterday Judge
Andrews began the short calendar list. The
most important case presented was the suit
of the West Haven Water company VS.. Rob-
ert Redfeld & Son, the contractors who built
the reservoir. The work is very defective, it
acclaimed, and won't hold water, SO the
water company sues for $4,000 damages.
The case was last summer tried before Attor-
ney Arvine as committee of the Superior
court, who found that the reservoir would
not hold water. Mr.. Arvine could not make
final report, as question of law was in
volved. Redfeld & Sons offered evidence
to show that they were not bound to make
the reservoir water tight, but as the contract
said they were MIR. Arvine ruled out this evil
dence as inadmissible on the ground that
parole evidence cannot be introduced to null
lily or alter written contracts. Because of
this ruling of Mr.. Arvine's the defense object
